I wonder if you have a plan A in life? If yes, i reckon your life is good. How about a plan B.
The other day, manage to catch Lecture room -Yu Dan show on TV. She told us a story.
A professor and a group of students were planning to enter a cave to find some rare water crystals formed deep in the cave. It is a dangerous place as few make it out alive once entered it. But they still decided to go ahead with the expedition. After much difficulties, they managed to find the rare crystals, collected some samples and it has been a moment in their life that they would not forget.
So what was next? The way out of the cave.The students became worried cause they don't know which exit to take as all of them seem to lead the way out. The professor said : "follow me, there must be some markings left by predecessors" and soon he lead the group out of the cave. All the students broke down and cried that they managed to survive the expedition.
How does the professor get himself and his student out safely? He took out some clay out from his pocket, he had painstakingly making markings on the wall of the cave as he entered it and he uses these markings to find his way out again.
How many times have we forgotten to make markings on the wall in life? The water crystals are just like our dreams or goal, we tried so hard to achieve them with passion and yet forgetting to think about getting out or a plan B in life.
This story really makes me think.

I think I'm at about plan G, maybe H. I had my life all planned when I graduated High school, and it didn't happen at all like I planned. The interesting part is that I wouldn't want it to be the way I had planned, I like it the way it is. For me it helps to have a goal and a plan to achieve that goal, then to just enjoy the ride to get there.
